Continued

The belt/blanket is coming along. I'd post a photo, but, really, it's still just a fat string developing into a scarf.

Skater Girl and I are headed to the rink tomorrow before church to observe a testing session. After mastering the Basic Skills, a skater may choose to enter the USFS test structure. The tests at this point require months of practice and coaching before registering for sessions where a panel of judges determine whether one passes or fails. With Skater Girl's first Moves in the Field test expected in May, it will likely be a plus to see how the sessions run without the pressure of performing.

The Boy was premature in his conviction that his homecoming would occur this week. The Powers That Be suggest a time frame rather than a specific date. Either way, the family reunion should happen sometime in the next six weeks.

Middle Child had her second pair of ear piercings done today. (I had my second set of earrings added at the same age, so it would have been hypocritical to have her wait longer just to be really sure.) She was a little nervous about the potential for pain. Perfect went along to offer additional encouragement, and they both seemed pretty pleased with the results.

I'm a wimp I never got beyond the single ear piercings and my teen and tween daughters look like they're going the same boring routes. We all hate needles...the sound of them going in skin. Very weird, eh?

Oh, The Places I Go:

About Me

Life is a slippery slope... one little "I do" has become three kids, two dogs, and a cat. (Suddenly I'm having a "How did I get here?" moment.) I love to cook, sleep, take photos, read, watch movies, and hang out with friends and family. I love my husband, the Lord, a good laugh, British history, pie, having all the laundry done, and the sometimes questionable opinions of my children.
